BlueSTEM teachers from Pacific Beach Middle School and Mission Bay High School, whose goal is to connect students to BlueTech education, career, and service opportunities, took advantage of an exploratory tour of the Maritime Museum. During their collaborative learning experience, teachers were challenged to wonder how they might incorporate the Maritime Museum into the BlueSTEM Pathway. Using this lens and a dream big approach, the teachers brainstormed creative ideas for new field trips, student led simulations, and designing experiences to learn about sailor health, boat health, buoyancy, and ship design. The staff is excited to partner with the Maritime Museum, and get students off campus for real world learning.
